Annual Procession of Vietnamese Monks This Wednesday

Thank you to Rev. Patti Nakai of the Buddhist Temple of Chicago for letting us know the timing of this annual tradition in our community:

"On Wednesday, July 8, the monks of Quang Minh Temple will do their annual pilgrimage to Uptown area Buddhist temples.

They will start at their temple (on Damen just north of Montrose) and walk to Chua Truc Lam at Ashland and Wilson. Then they will visit the Buddhist Temple of Chicago (corner of Leland and Racine) and Wat Phrasri-ratana-mahadhatu (Racine just north of Leland) and complete the pilgrimage in the Argyle Street area. Weather permitting, no exact schedule but tends to proceed in the late morning to past noon."
